Monarch Night

"Quit the chatter! Hurry up!"

"Don't you know we're all spoiled brats? If we really act like spoiled brats, we're ten thousand times worse than those you've met!"

Fang Che truly believed this sentence.

If this bunch were spoiled brats, each of the big families could turn the skies upside down.

"It's really inconvenient for so many of you to go..."

"We don't mind."

"But I do..."

"Doesn't matter if you mind."

"Can't squeeze in, the place is too small, really can't squeeze in."

"We can be in the yard, bros are all King level, don't mind the hot or cold."

"Damn, it's May now, what's cold? I'll just have my drink in the yard."

"There's a leader inside..."

"Heh, with our family backgrounds, we really don't care about any leader..."

"..."

No matter what was said, they wouldn't listen.

Fang Che was escorted, with a push here and a kick there, finally making it to the guesthouse entrance.

Everyone was noisily ready to head to the lower courtyard.

"Is it here..."

"No."

"Where?"

"Over there..."

Fang Che pointed with a hand.

"The upper courtyard?" Feng Xiangdong's voice changed: "Bro, boss, you and sister-in-law live in the upper courtyard?"

"Yeah, I heard it's the Elegant Garden."

Everyone went silent.

Xue Wanren's eyes flickered: "Bro, you live in the Elegant Garden?"

Fang Che rolled his eyes: "I'm only eighteen, you're in your twenties, calling me bro? Must be a mistake, right?"

Xue Wanren wore a fawning smile, eagerly massaging Fang Che's shoulders: "You're the boss, you're the Bro. Martial arts have no age; the strong are kings, Bro, you live in the Elegant Garden?"

"It's the Elegant Garden." Fang Che snorted and said, "You guys head back, there are many seniors inside here."

Everyone stiffened their necks: "We'll just be quieter."

They crowded around Fang Che to lead the way, but this time they were much more cautious and much quieter too.

Some even started to brush off Fang Che, with fawning looks.

They weren't like Fang Che, who genuinely didn't know what the Elegant Garden represented.

But these people, everyone was well aware in their hearts. Each of them was as familiar with this name as thunder, but they hadn't been inside even once in their lives.

As for this place, one might say it's as familiar as thunder.

The Elegant Garden, it is said that only those within the top hundred of the Cloud Weapon List have the qualifications to live in it.

Today, to be able to drink inside it is simply the greatest honor!

So although they were shivering inside, none of them were willing to give up.

My dad has never drunk in the Elegant Garden!

But I have!

Thinking of this, they were suddenly extremely eager, hearts burning hot.

All the way forward, they walked a long stretch of rugged road, finally reaching an extremely elegant place.

Only to see in front, flowers blossoming luxuriantly, lush green trees forming shade, all spiritual flowers and grass, with some spirit fruits hanging on the branches.

Everything in sight was the stuff of legends in the mortal world.

There wasn't a single ordinary one.

Even the grass underfoot could be used to make spiritual tea with Mingxin Grass.

Even for ordinary people, drinking this kind of grass could strengthen the body.

Two huge Purple Heart Vines formed a gate.

A guard emerged: "Staying? Where's your pass?"

Fang Che produced his Jade Token.

After inspecting it, the guard instantly stood upright with respect: "Please enter."

"These are all my friends."

"They're all welcome to enter as well."

Silently entering through the gate, inside were numerous small courtyards, each giving the feeling of a world unto itself.

The front courtyard was smaller, marked ninety-nine.

And the further back it went, the larger they became.

Shangfang Yayuan had a total of ninety-nine courtyards.

Following Fang Che forward, everyone was perplexed, why haven't we arrived yet?

Fang Che's rank, wouldn't qualify for such high.

Everyone thought maybe ninety-three or ninety-four, eighty-seven or eighty-eight, being able to drink in such a courtyard was already enough to boast a lifetime about.

But they saw they had already reached the teens, and Fang Che was still walking ahead.

"How come we're not there yet, what number is it?"

Feng Xiangdong's hands were sweating nervously, quietly asked: "Further ahead are the positions of the ancestors..."

Fang Che innocently said: "I don't know the number either, but the Jade Token has a sensing, guiding us forward, not there yet."

They all felt even more solemn in their hearts.

Not there yet?

Finally, they reached the last row, only three courtyards, each much larger, and evidently taller than all the courtyards before them by several times.

Forming a layout like 'mountains'.

Meaning the last three courtyards were the backing of all the previous courtyards.

Entering this area, thirty-five guys didn't dare to even breathe.

Tiptoeing, fearing to make even a smidge of noise.

This was the residence of the Cloud Weapon List's top three.

Yet Fang Che, holding the Jade Pendant, directly walked to the front of the third house.

Reached out and illuminated it.

A ding sound was heard.

The door opened.

Everyone gaped in astonishment.

This... This is Lord Jian's place, how come you... you, you... what's going on?

Fang Che turned his head to see, surprisingly no one was beside him, they were all craning their necks from afar watching.

"Come on? What happened to you all?"

A bunch of youth were shrinking back, muffling their voices like humming: "...Living here?"

"My Jade Token only opens here."

Fang Che puzzled: "Can't get into other places either."

"..."

...

Inside, An Ruoxing, Zhao Shanhe, and Old Man Shen were playing chess under the Mengqi flower trellis.

Mainly An Ruoxing and Zhao Shanhe were playing.

Old Man Shen, being a lousy player, got whipped thrice by Zhao Shanhe before he just watched from the side.

As he watched, he directed messily: "Old Zhao, you're playing terribly, this move has deadlocked, deadlocked."

"Old An, your move is truly brilliant, Old Zhao clearly has no way out."

"A godly move! At this point, Old Zhao's great dragon is severed, haha..."

"Old Zhao played another lousy move, this one is dead too, haha..."
